So this is what I’ve done and it solved it…

I took your sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2 and entered before I started the mirror and no more error so I started the mirror in dev and it was registering movement…Great!

So I closed the mirror and restarted… same error, driver not loaded…

so I did this in case of a power out,e tc…in a terminal window:

sudo crontab -e

Enter this on the last line:

@reboot sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2

Saved and exited.
Reboot
Restart mirror in dev mode
NO error and tracks movement
close mirror and restart in dev
NO error and tracks movement.

PROBLEM SOLVED!! Thank you guys for being patient!! It’s working.

  ******** BE AWARE THAT THIS IS STILL BEING TESTED *********

I wrote this module 2 years ago…this is a complete makeover and all new for 2019!!
This version comes equipped with either touch or mouse abilities! [no MMM-voice capabilities yet]
It has an ‘instruction’ button that will popup with the instructions and if you choose you can click on the picture and a video will popup for you to watch about that recipe!

THIS IS A POSITIONAL MODULE…SEE README ON GITHUB!

@SvenSommer said in stronger Raspberry Pi 3 Alternatives:

@cowboysdude
I just updated the summary post, could you please check, if there is everything correct?!

   Operating System Support:

    Windows 10*
    Windows 8.1*
    Windows 7
    64-bit supported only

Under that I would also put Linux… I’m running Unbuntu on the machine currently which makes it much easier to run MM :)

Interesting… I could add this to the MMM-Mail to play a sound when a new email comes in… nice :)

Description:
This is a simple advice module that offers common sense everyday things…
Works off of your language setting in your config.js

Version 1.0.0

That should work for you :)
Instead of News Source I put the author as the news source doesn’t change.

Just install xscreensaver and turn it off.

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1503/how-to-disable-screensaver/4

@sgtwtf

My solution was to install xscreensaver and use the desktop control panel to disable the screensaver.

sudo apt-get install xscreensaver
sudo reboot
On reboot open the desktop start menu (via the GUI, not the terminal) and I think it’s Preferences > Screensaver Settings. There’s an option to set (and disable) the screensaver. It worked for me. :)

Well here’s step 1 for my big mirror… I wanted something stronger then a PI so here is my mini-itx in its new home… Cooling is NOT an issue… it’s about 13" square and about 3 inches tall :) Easy to put out of the way … NOW to build a frame for the ‘display’… Coming soon!

HERE is how it all stays cool…this fan is totally SILENT… LOVE IT!

For the NFL games…

My first true module! :)

NOT STYLED yet, still needs more work but… but here’s a quick snapshot…

Latest tests…

I’m building my own Weather module but would like some input into what others think…
It has current condition on the top and in the Forecast section it rotates through 10 days of upcoming weather…

Word of the day Module for your mirror!

Version 1.0.0

@sean said in CSS-help:

.your_target_className {
padding-right:10px;
}

If all you need is that one entry you can put it in your custom.css file located in the css directory of magicmirror like this…

.MMM-Whateveryourmodulenameis .your_target_className {

padding-right:10px;

OR add this to your module:

      getStyles: function() {
       return ["MMM-Whateveryourmodulenameis.css"];
       },

Then create a css file named like the above and enter your info in that…

Like I said if you only need that one entry I’d just shove into my custom.css file…

UPDATE V.2

Changed the format to show 3 days of weather instead of rotating. Quicker, easier and loads twice as fast!

Added 2 new config options:

1. Show or hide wind
2. Show or hide Date

See the README on Github

Thank you to @barnosch for the help and ideas!!

Here’s my latest round of testing :) In case you missed, I didn’t show it on the video but this is also a 32" touch screen as well :)

It now controls my heat/AC. Shows the temp/humidity in 4 of my rooms. Can also show if my phone is home or not, didn’t see the point of that LOL. I am using HousePanel for that which can be found here: https://github.com/open-dash/HousePanel

The guy has done a FANTASTIC job creating HousePanel for Samsung Smartthings Hub.

Coming at some point… lights and door lock :)

Here’s a screen shot…it’s been a labor of love :) This is NOAA3… with a few new features…stay tuned.

Update: House Control page
[Sorry it was bit blurry…I also didn’t show the Thermostat but it’s there and working :)]

Added support to MMM-voice for MMM-pages.

If you’re using MMM-voice you can say “next page” or “last page” and it will change the pages.
BUT you will have to update your MMM-voice with my fork as the PR has not been approved yet. Just simply download it from me and copy it over your files in MMM-voice dir.
